Your account and signing in

Updated September 29, 2026

Your account

Your Lumen Tool account is the email address you used when you subscribed. There is no separate password.

Changing your email address

Open Account and choose Change next to your email, or Manage next to Billing. Both open the Stripe page where you can enter a new address. Your Lumen Tool account, including The Archive, moves along with it, and from then on you sign in with the new address.

Signing in

Enter that email address on the sign-in page. Lumen Tool sends you a six-digit code and a sign-in link. Use either one; each works once and expires after 20 minutes.

After signing in, that browser stays signed in until you sign out, remove its session or delete the account.

The Account page

Account shows your email address, whether your membership is active, your plan and when it renews, or the date your access ends after cancelling. Manage next to Billing takes you to Stripe for invoices, payment details and cancelling.

Sign out only signs out this browser. It does not stop your subscription.

Deleting your account

Choose Delete next to Delete account, type DELETE ACCOUNT, then choose Delete for good. This permanently removes the account, its sign-ins and everything saved with it, including The Archive.

Deleting does not cancel your subscription. If you want the payments to stop, cancel first under Billing. If you want to keep your saved work, download an Archive backup before you delete.
